We were proud to read on the Hampshire rugby site that three of our four U15 County players from last season have survived the first cut and will be fast tracked to the final U16 trial on 11 September. At that point the squad will be joined by players who make it through an open trial and will then have a nervous wait for the final cut down to just 30 players.

Our best wishes go to Joe Gwyther, Ed Simmons and Josh Smith - the club are very proud of you and you have our full support!
